The following financial information is for three and nine month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Lewis Black, Chief Executive Officer of Almonty commented, "Almonty has been able to maintain the robust production and sales volumes in Q3 and is on pace to match or exceed them again in Q4. The efficiency gains and our focus on cost control are continuing to pay off and should be further enhanced as our tungsten recovery rate improves going forward. This quarter saw us complete mining activity on one pit with a high capitalized cost base that we inherited at the time of the acquisition of the Los Santos Project. This led to a higher than anticipated amortization charge during Q3 that had a negative impact on net income and earnings per share but did not impact operating cash flow, which reached record levels during the quarter. The return of mining activity to the main pits at Los Santos should see Almonty's financial performance improve significantly in Q4 and during fiscal 2015."

A teleconference to review the third quarter results will be held at 8:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday August 27, 2014. Representing management will be Lewis Black, chairman, president & chief executive officer, and Dennis Logan, chief financial officer. A question and answer period will follow brief remarks from management.
